#187…Sabbatical Concluded: Conclusions

Two years…have taught me……1)  All my giftings come from family I have never met. 2) Love is the ONLY way. 3) God is the new Santa Claus. I started this sabbatical in Nov. of 2019.

#186…Ten Years Later, Making Peace with Mother

Let go, let God. Bottom line, it’s the only thing that works in my life and I realize, FINALLY, I am the major problem here, as It takes me forever to figure things out. I possess a streak of “dumb”.

#184…Have You Sang Your Song?

I’m discovering my 3 adult granddaughters, all beautiful women! Each unique with different genes of all the grandparents they no longer remember. Some of their wonderful traits mingled with the bad stuff. One is  highly intelligent beyond her years.

#183…Wasted Years…But Were They?

Two weddings in 2 weeks, what a tuff time with emotions! The Bride is ALWAYS beautiful. The groom absolutely handsome. The wedding well rehearsed, every hair in place, everything perfect.

#178…Weeding, Deadheading and Cleaning Out (Luna)Ticks

Good grief! To say Jim is strange is somewhat inadequate. Weird, wild, plum crazy does not even get anywhere near to how he is. Perhaps bizarre scratches the surface….Out of control nails it. Such is this cracked nut in our RV Club. Does such verbage hurt his feelings or offend him? Nah…I’m sure he thinks, Read more about #178…Weeding, Deadheading and Cleaning Out (Luna)Ticks[…]

Amazingly our family made it thru Covid-19 alive, but a few did come down with the virus and only time will reveal if, and what damage.

#174…Life after Death…SSDD

I believe we live parallel lives. Have you ever noticed when you buy a new vehicle, everyone on the road also has the same, AND in your color? Forever ago I had my gall bladder removed only to discover I was the last person on earth to have that done, as everyone had done that Read more about #174…Life after Death…SSDD[…]

Another spring is here. The crocus is up and the daffodils and tulips and non-stop work for the next 6 months.

Not to be able to go to a dance at the Eagles is yet another long reaching hand of this covid. Twenty years of the same ole people at the same ole dance, my God do I miss them! ! !  But “same ole” is the magic. We have laughed together, we have cried together, Read more about #168…And We Danced…[…]
